Editor MoHAvE CorSrY MrSER:--
Our mining boom is still with us. Re-
port comes from the G. o. ID. OF fabulous
ly rich ore eyerv bucketful Of ore that
comes to the surface glistens with pure
and native silver. There is history TO
this mine that will bear careful study.
The O. 0. d. mine was FIRST located by Jack
johnson, and for many years the claim
was thought to be Of but little value, but
Jack was one OF the kind Of prospectors
that never gave up, but kept on working,
although hardly enough ore came out to
pay expenses. During the winter oilss5
and SO some fair ore was found, but the
claim was in debt for labor. At tho same
time the claim was offered for sale AT
$4,000. Dana and Howell looked at the
property, but could not see the 5000.
During the first part Of 1885 miner was
employed by johnson and the mine was
placed in his hands. A whip was con-
structed and main shaft was sunk to
the depth Of ECO feet and levels run nearly
100 feet each way. This developed fine
body Of ore. After johnson had taken
out and sold enough ore to pay all back
Indebtedness, Dana & Howell began TO
negotiate for the mine tby this time the
mine was no longer called claim, but
a mine), but the price was advanced 70
s25 900 cash. There was but few words
passed before bargain was agreed to
and the money paid over and Dana &
Howell placed in possession. Two miles
Of road had to be built, costly machinery
was purchased and the main shaft tim
bered, all Of which cost not less than
from eight to ten thousand dollars.
A few days since heard a miner ask
Mr.. Howell il he would give the ore that
came out Of the main shaft for all expense
OF dead work. He answered very quickly.
.So, not by many thousand dollars"
Some of the miners pretend to estimate
the ore taken out in one day, to be Ave
or six thousand dollars net cash; this
from 4xs shaft. Tho shaft began at the
20O-foos level and is being sunk about
two foot day.
The Cnpel mine is also doing well, and
getting down near lo0 feet, have found
water, but not enough to hinder work
much. Every week these two mines will
have reporting, and miners can learn
through your valuable paper the result Of
working mine below the water level.

Take Care of the Pennies.

Americans are said to be a careless, money
spending people, who disdain. or do not care
to practice those small economies which the
French and German nations, for example,
find necessary. There is probably some
trut in this charge, for in America money
comes easier than in the old countries, and
also goes easier Yet, America is the land
of inventions, and of new ideas. and of uni
versal progress. Among ne new ideas, one
which has occasioned good deal of ak, is
the sdaptst on of Lsct rt and Honey 10 the
cure of coughs and colds. This preparation
is put up by the Avery Lsct tie Company, of
Boston, the manufacturers of the famous
Lactart (acid of milky and is meeting with
wonderful succ SIS in the cure OF coughs
colds, hoarseness, and sore throat. Lsct ,rt
being the pure acid Of milk, compounded
with honey in certain proportions, is found
to possess true curative power. There is
not ling very mysterious in this result, for
people have always been in the habit of using
"a sweet and a sour" for throat diff cuit es
But nothing in this line, as effective as Lactsrt
and Honey, has before been tried. Dr. O.
5 Sanders. one o. Boston's distinguished
physicians, writes II recommend Lsctart
and Honey for coughs, colds, sore throat, etc.
II aids the bow els i constipation. and has a
like effect N diarrhoe - and his testimony is
support BY many others Lactsrt and
Honey is exceedingly pleasant to take, and is
sure to benefit the user.

the expenditure of large amount OF
money in our midst which will give new
impulse to our business activity. Indus
trial growth and material prosperity 60
| hand in hand. The one is the result Of
the other The only way for our city to
secure the latter is to encourage the
| former.
But new mills cannot run themselves.
They must employ large force OF help.
and this calls for large pay-rolls. The
greater part of this money goes into the
business of the city. The merchants
have more trade; the farmers find good
home market for their produce, and an
impetus is given to every department of
industry.
Abbott's History of Maine contains the
prediction that Augusta is destined to be
come one of the leading manufacturing cit
les in the country. With our magnificent
water power this is by no means impossi-
| BILE. While other rivers run low and the
supply OF water is occasionally insufficient
to turn the wheels of their large mills,
there is always plenty of water in the
Kennebec. What possibilities this magni-
ficent power offers to our city, What a
chance for industrial growth and business
prosperity. With broad and enlight-
ened policy on the part of our citizens,
Augusta may become more than the leap
tal OF Maine" 1t may be one of the
pushing. driving manufacturing cities OF
New England and Abbott's prophecy be
fulfilled.
1t should also be borne in mind that the
Edwards Co. in addition to new
cotton mill, proposes to erect good sub
stantial mill, with ample power, for the
accommodation of small manufactures
There is no doubt but thar the erection of
such building as this will induce num-
Der of these small industries to locate here.
1t has long been crying need of our city.
ing up the industrial life of other cities
would have located here could they have
secured the accommodations that such a
building would have afforded. 1t will
thus be seen that the proposition
of the Edwards Co. contemplates not only
an increase but variety of industries. 1t
is to be earnestly hoped that no citizen of
Augusta will be so blind to our best inter-
ests as to oppose this liberal offer of the
Edwards Co. The voters of this city are
now called upon to accept or reject pro-
position upon which depends, in great
measure, its future prosperity. There
should not be even show of opposition.
1t is to be hoped that Diogenes and his tub
will not be present at the meeting, and
that the number of Augusta citizens who
would be content to sit like ravens on the
tombstones of buried opportunities, and
bemoan the obduracy OF fate and the frosts
of winter. may be found to be infinitely

Augustus Opportunity.

1t is to be hoped that no citizen of Au.
gusta who has at heart its industrial pros
perity. will fail to be present at the meet
ing this afternoon and evening, "to see il
the city will fix the valuation of the proper
ty OF the Edwards Mfg Co. at $500, 900,
for purposes of taxation, provided said
Co. will build new cotton mill on the
west side OF the river, having a capacity
of so 900 spindles or more; a new mill for
small manufactures on the east side of the
river. and make other Improvements
said valuation to commence when said cot
ton mill shall be put in operation aud con
tinue for ten years from the expiration OF
the present limit of valuation" This pro-
position of the Edwards Co. ifaccepted will
add 5000. 900 to the present valuation of
the city, aud to this extent will Tighten the
burdens of our taxpayers.
While other cities have offered the in
ducement of exemption from taxation, tor
a term of years. to companies that would
establish new manufactures within their
limits. the Edwards Co. has never asked
such immunity from the citizens of Au-
gusta. The proposition which was made
to the people of Augusta in 1888. fixed
the valuation of the company at $500, 900
for u term of ten years. and the substan-
tial growth which we have enjoyed since
that time, aud which is TOO obvious
to be questioned has shown the wisd ,m
of the iar-seeing and progressive policy
which accepted it. The question now
before the people of Augusta is not how
much they shall give the Edwards Co.,
but how much the Edwards Co.,
may be induced to add 10 the present
valuation of the city. With this fact in
mind it would seem impossible that any
citizen with ordinary breadth of view
should not perceive the advantages, that
will accrue to the city from an accept
ance of the present liberal proposition of
the Edwards Co.
But there is still stronger reason why
this should be done, than the increase in
the city valuation. This is to be found in
the enlarged business activity which such
action will bring to us. and which will be
shared by all departments OF industry.
The erection of new buildings means
work for carpenters, masons. painters,
mechanics. and their assistants it means
home market for all the
materials used in construction it means
